Two Month Review #6.6: The Book of Disquiet (sections 174-221)

This week’s podcast goes off the rails pretty quickly, and includes a hungover dismissal of this version of The Book of Disquiet, the phrase “reclaim some of the douchery” is spoken, there is a lot of laughter, a discussion about the tensions between trying to read this as poetry vs. the expectations that come from trying to read it as fiction, and much more.
